Email Security Gateway provides comprehensive on-premises email security hosted on a Websense V-series appliance. Each email message is scanned by a robust set of antivirus and antispam filters to prevent infected email from entering the network. Domain and IP address based message routing ensures reliable, accurate delivery of email. Inbound, outbound, and internal email policies can be applied to specified sets of senders and recipients. Data loss prevention policies are used to scan mail and attachments so that valuable company data is not mishandled.

The value of Email Security Gateway is apparent as soon as the module is opened. A today page displays data collected since midnight of the current day, showing the total message volume processed and the number of messages blocked by Email Security. System alerts covering the same period of time are readily available. Up to 4 status charts may be selected for display, summarizing email activity at a glance.
